How to Display Product Upsells on the Thank You Page

You can display product upsells on the Thank You page in WooCommerce by hooking into the order-received endpoint and echoing WooCommerce’s built-in

Why the Thank You Page Is a Strong Upsell Moment

• The customer has just completed a purchase and trust is at its highest point
• Unlike checkout, there’s no risk of interrupting or complicating the current transaction
• The Thank You page isn’t a real WordPress page, so a shortcode can’t simply be pasted in — it needs a hook
• Works well combined with related or complementary product suggestions

Step 1: Display Chosen Products on the Thank You Page

/** Show a hand-picked list of products on the Thank You page */
add_action( 'woocommerce_thankyou', 'display_upsell_products_thankyou' );

function display_upsell_products_thankyou() {
    echo '<h2>You Might Also Like</h2>';
    echo do_shortcode( '
' );
}

Troubleshooting

Products always show, even ones the customer just bought

This static list doesn’t automatically exclude items from the order — add a check against $order->get_items() and filter out matching product IDs before rendering the shortcode.

Product list looks outdated over time

Since the IDs are hardcoded, review and refresh this list periodically as your catalog changes, or build a dynamic version that pulls from a product category instead of fixed IDs.
